>From what I've seen of the ROSE 16 Editor is that it is extremely fast and
does use the same key commands as the ORCA Shell editor... which is real nice.
Real Tabs would be nice (cut down on code size).  But the one BIG problem I
see with the ROSE 16 Editor is that it doesn't support past 80 Columns. While
this may be fine for assembler programmers, it makes it near worthless for C
programmers like me.  My guess also is that is one of the reasons the ROSE
editor is faster than ORCA's.  (Oh yeah, multiple files is pretty nice in ROSE
also).
